CHAPTER 538: CHAPTER 284: "LET THE MAGNIFICENT DEBUT OF THE MIRACLE BEGIN."_2

She used to be very loyal.

I never thought that one day I would see her cheating, nor did I ever think she would look so alluring while doing it.

I feel like I’m sick, like I’m a pervert.

"September 30, 7257": The factory has had no orders for seven days now. For some reason, my father-in-law is not pushing me anymore, but from the TV news, it seems like the Mechanical Civilization is advancing rapidly, winning battle after battle. I don’t know what has provoked my father-in-law, but he’s been drinking heavily every day. Today, he even raped a female employee in front of everyone at the factory.

Has he gone mad?

He appeared as if he had a massive memory chip implanted at once, causing a memory disorder.

If he needed that, he could have told me, I would let him use my secret room.

Fortunately, I kept the news contained within the factory, or else he would be facing jail time.

"October 11, 7257": I have already figured out how to sabotage the ’giant gear set’ in such a way that the factory workers can’t fix it, without causing too much trouble. All it takes is to hit the inlet with a hammer seven times, then the outlet three times. I’m a genius.

"November 10, 7257": Winter has arrived, and my father-in-law has become increasingly insane. I haven’t shared a bed with my wife in a long time, she seems to be holding a lot of resentment, but I don’t care. She is not the one I love. From the beginning to the end, there has only been one woman I loved.

These days, I’ve almost needed a repairman to come over every day.

I’m getting more and more lost in this affair.

Even...

From the initial conflict and struggle in my heart, I have now begun to enjoy this scene. I start enjoying her allure during the affair, enjoying this allure I’ve never seen before, enjoying... this moment.

It seems like everyone has gone mad, but I’m very happy.

"November 15, 7257": The factory has had no orders for two months, it might go bankrupt. Today a big event happened, the Mechanical Civilization suddenly recalibrated their calendar.

So strange.

The Mechanical Civilization’s calendar always had 365 days in a year.

The war with the Insect Race has been going on since before I was born, fought for almost 296 years, I’ve long been accustomed to seeing news of the Mechanical Civilization winning another battle.

The top leader of the Mechanical Civilization appeared on screen and altered all the databases; from now on, the calendar of the Mechanical Civilization is that one day equals one year. What kind of nonsense calendar is this...

In which civilization does a year consist of only 24 hours?

From its founding up to now, roughly 7258 years have passed in the Mechanical Civilization, using almost this same calendar, how can it suddenly change without any signs?

But since the top leadership has stated so, it can only be obeyed.

"Year 2649170": Yes, this morning, when the display automatically popped up with this calendar, I dazedly almost thought I had time-traveled. What a huge number... the entire database of the Mechanical Civilization’s calendar had been altered overnight.

Originally, the war between the Mechanical Civilization and the Insect Race lasted 295 years, almost 296 years.

The result—

Now it directly changed to having been fought for 107991 years.

Almost 110,000 years!

Insane, what are they trying to do; such a large number makes me feel a bit distorted about the calendar. How am I supposed to calculate my age in the future? One year every day?

This can’t possibly be the leadership’s way to resolve residents’ short lifespan issues, right?

Indeed, it does solve the problem.

"Year 2649171": Today’s news was quite interesting, many people were taking their resident cards, indicating they were over tens of thousands of years old, to apply for retirement and receive pensions. Quite entertaining.

Also.

My father-in-law has gone completely insane. He really snapped.

After raping a male employee yet again, he drunkenly pointed at me and cursed that I’m a waste, saying I can’t even produce a child, claiming I’m doomed, that only newborns have a chance to survive, and everyone else must die.

He said he fancied me back then because my waist was strong, able to father children.

He cursed very nastily.

I was very angry, if I hadn’t covered for him today, he would have been arrested by the Law Enforcement Bureau for intentional harm!

"Year 2749173": I feel life is becoming more and more dull, not exciting enough. Today, while having an affair with her in the secret room, she whispered to me that her husband might have found out.

She said that last night when they were sharing a room, her husband remained silent for quite some time before stopping and falling asleep.

Life’s getting exciting.

Anyway, I’ve got money, even if I’m discovered, I can handle it.

-

"That’s it?"

Biaozi looked at the last page somewhat unsatisfied: "Feels like reading a novel; I’m still quite interested in knowing the ending, what’s up with the abrupt halt here, leaving the story unfinished like this is absurd."

"He can’t produce children anymore!"

Old Pig rolled his eyes at Biaozi: "Didn’t you hear him say that the Mechanical Civilization and the Insect Race have been fighting for 107991 years, and it was 108000 years before the Mechanical Civilization perished? Which means when he wrote the final diary entry, there were only five years until the demise of the Mechanical Civilization."

"Oh..."

"That’s just 5 days."

"The Mechanical Civilization changed its calendar before its downfall, perhaps thinking that after the collapse, when information gets out, it’d be a bit unpleasant for people to know the Insect Race obliterated the Mechanical Civilization in just over 200 years. Saying it took 108,000 years sounds nicer."

"In my view, it’s still conservative, should’ve made it one hour per year."
